Your Payment Might Be Delayed Due to These Reasons…**

The most talked‑about topic among farmers today is the next installment of the PM Kisan Samman Nidhi scheme — especially the 22nd installment. Eligible farmers want to know when the 2,000 will be credited to their accounts and what could be causing delays.

📅 Expected Release of the 22nd Installment

Under the PM Kisan Yojana, farmers receive 6,000 per year in three equal installments of 2,000 each, usually spaced about 4 months apart. The 21st installment was released on 19November2025.

According to several media reports and scheme timelines:
✔ The 22nd installment is expected to be released in early 2026, most likely in january or february 2026 — following the typical payment gap.

Important: This timeline is based on standard release patterns and news updates, but the government hasn’t announced an official confirmation yet. So farmers should watch the official PM Kisan website for the exact date.

💸 Why Payments Sometimes Get Delayed

Even though farmers eagerly await their payments every few months, there are common reasons why money may not arrive on time:

1. Incomplete e‑KYC

e‑KYC (Electronic Know Your Customer) is mandatory for all beneficiaries.
If your e‑KYC hasn’t been completed, the installment can be withheld until it is done.

2. Aadhaar or bank Details Are Incorrect

Mistakes in your Aadhaar number, bank account number, or IFSC code can prevent funds from being transferred.

3. e‑KYC + Land Verification Issues

The government has intensified eligibility verification, including land ownership checks. If your name or land details don’t match the records, your payment may be paused.

4. Duplicate or Suspicious Records

Cases where a family is receiving installments for multiple members without correct eligibility, or paperwork is incomplete, can get flagged by the system — leading to delays.

5. mobile Number and Document Linkage

Your mobile number must be linked with your Aadhaar and bank account. Without these wallet PLATFORM' target='_blank' title='digital-Latest Updates, Photos, Videos are a click away, CLICK NOW">digital linkages, OTP verification and payments can fail.
